Santos City is no exception. Despite efforts to educate young people about the risks and
consequences of early pregnancies, many teens still engage in risky sexual behaviors
that can lead to unintended pregnancies. In this reflection paper, we will explore the
causes and effects of teenage pregnancy in General Santos City, and discuss potential
solutions to this growing problem.
One of the major causes of teenage pregnancy in General Santos City is a lack of
comprehensively sex education. Many young people are not adequately informed about
the risks and consequences of early pregnancies, and may not have access to reliable
sources of information about sexual health. This can lead to risky behaviors, such as
unprotected sex, that can result in unintended pregnancies.
The cause of teenage pregnancy in General Santos City is poverty. Many young
people in the city live in impoverished conditions, and may not have access to the
resources they need to prevent pregnancies. For example, they may not have access to
contraception or other forms of birth control, or may not be able to afford regular
medical care.
